Always amusing to watch a lib getting mugged by reality - especially when it’s happening in slow motion, as it is in Weinstein’s case.
The guy has made some progress but he still has a long way to go to full sanity. He’s still trying to find ways to justify their demented behavior.
What happened in evergreen is liberal vs liberal. For decades, they doctrines a bunch of liberal bs. They practice them by admitting students not based on academic merit but on some political correctness. Now they reaping what they sow
Cut their funding let the leftist students run the college.
Offer other students that are sane a transfer and pair 2 years of tuition at any other college with the fund they yank from evergreen.
See how far the G_D DAMNED SJW crispy critters get.

It’s all ingrained in our pop culture now. I had the misfortune of watching Saturday Night Live last week and 80% of the skits had something to do with race. Of course their sanctimonious moral superiority ALLOWS them to say whatever they want. I have never see America so in trouble.
“Racism” is a 20th century neologism with no fixed meaning.
And this poor fool is “racist” by any reasonable definition.
“Hey. Hey, ho, ho, Western Civ has got to go”
Well, after 30 years under attack Western Civ is almost gone.
Unfortunately, Western Civilization is the only real civilization the world has ever known
We are now descending into irrational, illogical and violent tribalism
It is Marxist critical theory that has been injected into all curricula, since 1965 or earlier-—to literally, destroy the minds of our children and brainwash them, and destroy the Christian worldview, so that emotions will always rule Reason.
The Age of Reason (Christianity) has to destroy virtue formation in children and normalize warped, versions of history and lies, etc., so they can control the emotions for life of the children, and trigger “group-think” mob actions like we saw with the Brownshirts. The whole Prussian school system is a brainwashing tool put in by the sodomite Marxists in the 1800s to get total control over America—a 100 year plan.
It is working. Look at the dumb, ignorant, immoral youth that are being pumped out of all of the universities. Without wisdom, knowledge and virtue, civil society will collapse. The Marxists knew this and that was their plan-—destroy and control the minds of the masses (Hollywood run by sodomites to destroy virtue and warp desires and create envy, etc) and the school curricula which erased all Classical Christian curricula by 1950s so they could flip the worldview of little children-—into evil, corrupt non-thinking masses.
Youtuber Sargon of Akkad is a liberal, British atheist, and he was calling social justice a cult a year ago. He also received the liberal hate mob attacks, trying to demonetize his channel by flagging videos as hate speech, sending him death threats, even harassing his girlfriend to try to get her to break up with him.

This is one of the inevitabilities of letting just any idiot go to university-level schooling: any type of brainwashing can be pumped out and the low IQ students eat it up thinking it is real knowledge.
Reason does tend to be confounded by unreason, rather stupidly in my opinion, because it happens all the time. The good Professor appears to be laboring under the misapprehension that these "student" demands are intended to address legitimate grievances; they are nothing of the sort, they are not appeals to reason, they are intended first to dominate, and then to humiliate. The people making them know this perfectly well. Why, then, does an educated man find it so difficult to comprehend?
Evergreen has for quite some time been subjected to this systemic academic rot. Its current president, who was identified in another article as, God help us, a sociologist, is demonstrably too weak for the position and Weinstein's colleague in the Media department is openly complicit with information warfare against a fellow faculty member. As a STEM professor he is a class enemy. As a white (strike one) man (strike two) of reason (strike three) he is a target. As to where does this violence end, that is very well-established in history: it ends in the cattle cars. There is no excuse for any educated person in the 21st century not to know this.
...you asked me what would have to happen for us to right the ship, the second one is my faculty colleagues have to wake up to the fact that their belief structure has become bizarre and unrecognizable from any normal position.
Well, yes, and that's the problem you run into when your opponents are trying to establish a New Normal with themselves as unchallengeable arbiters. They're not there to discuss the matter. Their belief system only appears bizarre; in fact, it's the oldest of them all: submit and obey and die. And the only proper response from an intelligent person toward this totalitarian frenzy is force.
In their quest for power, left has been deeming all sorts of idiotic values to be virtues for decades. Is it really a surprise that it’s devolved into a contest to see who can be the most “virtuous”?
Again, the guy needs to feel a sense of failure, that after all of his trips to Ecuador, he never had any faithful disciples, probably they sensed he was a ship without a rudder. How can he call himself a Jew, and yet hem haw around about some people believing in an entity that is Higher. I think the student body is WISE and has seen through the empty heads of the Evergreen University. Reminds me of the movie, the Emperor Had No Clothes, when at last a small child said, BUT HE DOESN’T HAVE ON ANY CLOTHES. These professors are chasing their own tails and have not given any life changing value system for the students to grasp.
